1. Place the lathe on the stand top. Locate the front and left corner of the lathe approximately 25mm (1in.) from the corner edge of the
stand top. This provides a comfortable reach when turning and allows the optional outrigger unit to be easily installed.
2. If necessary, mark the six hole locations on the top and drill M12 holes.
3. Place a spirit level along the top of the lathe bed. Any movement of the bubble as the lathe is secured, indicates a twist on the bed.
For the lathe to operate correctly the bed must not twist; if necessary, use shims between the bed and stand top.
4. Use bolts of suitable length (not included) to secure the lathe. Tighten the two headstock bolts first, then the two tailstock bolts, and
finally tighten the last two bolts on top.
5. The two M10 threaded holes underneath the outrigger end of headstock can be optionally used (making a total of 8 bolt positions).
Ensure that the bolts are metric M10 x 1.5mm pitch and correct length to ensure that the bolt does not bottom the threaded hole
which could potentially damage casting.
Connecting to Power
The power cord should be 3-wire, having a grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with local electrical codes.
The DVR SATURN can run on either 115v or 220v ~ 240v, but the lathe will require correct plug for the selected voltage. If the lathe is
purchased in USA, it will already be setup for 115v operation. All other countries are preset for 220v ~ 240v.
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, the cord should be grounded. Use the correct wire size for the extension cord, for a given cord
length, to avoid power loss and over-heating.
IMPORTANT:
A Surge Protection Device rated to at least 15 amps - for USA and Canada, other countries 10 or 15
amps - must be used to protect the DVR electronics from electrical spikes or surges, similar to those
used on most Home PC's. Ground Fault Interrupters (GFI's) or Residual Current Detectors (RCD's)
are helpful and are a recommended protection device for any power tool. They can be used in
conjunction with a DVR lathe. Note some makers of GFI may not be compatible
